The Caribbean Community (Caricom) will supervise the general elections in Haiti. Prime Minister Conille welcomed the initiative during a meeting with eminent personalities of this organization, on mission in Haiti until August 16 to assess the political situation in the country and supervise the progress in the establishment of the transitional bodies.

However, Conille recently joined the list of politicians skeptical about the holding of general elections in 2026.

This attitude of the Head of Government, stems from the slowness displayed by the international community which is slow to materialize the Mission of support for the maintenance of security in Haiti authorized by the UN Security Council.

Prime Minister Garry Conille in an interview last week for the BBC World Service’s Hard Talk podcast with Stephen Sackur https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-42944-haiti-politic-holding-elections-will-be-really-difficult-if.html had declared “[…] The Haitian people are extremely patient, the team formed for the transition is very fragile and is based on the expectation that international support will arrive soon […] If the country does not receive the promised security aid soon, it will be very difficult to organize general elections in 2026 […] hence the importance that Haiti’s partners and neighboring countries respect their commitments,” Conille declared.

Let’s recall that the Commander of the Kenyan forces Godfrey Otunge had declared at the beginning of August “[…] The armored vehicles provided by the United States are used to transport troops but do not allow us to fight against armed gangs…” https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-42900-haiti-news-zapping.html requesting from the Americans, armored combat vehicles equipped with a turret. Similarly, the mission finds it necessary to have at least one combat helicopter to respond to the situation… https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-42951-haiti-flash-weapons-ammunition-and-armored-vehicles-arrive-as-reinforcements.html

Without this equipment, the offensive against the gangs will not be able to materialize and Haiti remains. For the moment waiting for the Americans to deliver this equipment.

Conille will run the clock towards elections, as did PM Henry, then, at the last moment, generate some chaos and say elections are impossible.

Conille caims to be interested in security, however, he fired an effective DGPNH and replaced him one that Jovenel fired for incompetence several years ago. And DGPNH Rameau Normil is living up to his reputation by blocking the acquisition of ammunition for the PNH. The PNH is faced with an ammunition emergency and Rameau refuses to take any action.

PNH OFFICERS ARE DYING BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF ACTION ON THE PART OF PM CONILLE AND DGPNH RAMEAU NORMIL.
